How To Tutorial

Recently, it has come to my attention that I have readers that I didn't know I had... How cool!! That got me thinking... how many more are out there that I don't know about? So, I turned to my stat counter (I had ignored it for MONTHS) and realized there are quite a few of you lurking out there... checking in, reading all of the nonsense posts that I write, and then disappearing again. There are some of you that leave me an occasional note on the sidebar, and I have to say, I love those little notes!! :) Keep 'em coming!! But, do you want to know what every blogging girl L.O.V.E.S?? I'll tell you.....
  
COMMENTS!!

I

Comments!!

Really, I do!!


You see, when no one comments on a post (or, only a daddy, a cousin and a sister-in-law do comment), a blogging girl can feel a bit like maybe she is just talking to herself.  I'm just sayin'... Really.  So, since I see you lurking out there, I thought I'd give you a tutorial on how to leave a comment, because, just maybe, you didn't know that you COULD leave comments on the posts.  Maybe.
  • First, read the post.  That's easy.  You should have that part down by now.  
  • Next, at the bottom of the post, you should see a line that says "X people have left their two cents."  That is a link.  Click it!!  The link takes you to the little comment window.  There you can leave your comments for this blogging girl to read so she no longer feels like she's talking to herself. 
  • After you write your comment in the box, choose your identity. 
  • Last, type the letters you see in the verification box and hit the "publish your comment button."
It's as simple as that!! :)  Happy reading and commenting, everyone! :)

I'm sorry no one leaves you comments. I have the same problem on my sisters and I blog. But I kinda think of it as my online journal just for me to see my life, and then I begin to appreciate it whether people leave me comments or not.

How is it that you post a comment? What am I s'posed to do? And what does that squiggly word mean anyway? It's not in the dictionary. Ha-Ha!

Just sending some love! I love comments too, sometimes I don't have anything fun to say though. xoxo

Finally at home where I am ABLE to leave a comment and remembered to do so. I read most of the blogs I follow using Bloglines on my Blackberry. I had never tried to comment using it, but I tried the other day after reading this. Needless to say, it didn't work. :-( So I always read, just usually can't comment even if I wanted to!
